Can it be used as a cheap alternative to WD40? Kinda the same idea.
Homebase reduction chaos.....I picked up a pack of artichoke roots for planting. The young woman on the customer services checkout said, 'Oh,...

My local store is having a clearance. As well as non-gardening bargains (serious reductions on heavy duty baking tins, assorted padlocks, door...
I see what you mean. You reckon those little compound leaves are from the same plant as the flowers? They are serrated? There's also what looks...
I'd guess a Carex with the leaves being from a different plant...Carex though is clump forming, hmm. Beware that Carex pendula can grow too well...
